| Message | The CU is a pacifist party. Our Bills, aiming at reducing the army have proved this. However, we oppose Dundorf being a place for all refugees and foreigners who threaten our civilization. |

| Message | As an internationalist workers' party, the decision for us is clear. |

| Message | As a party which respects the rights of all Terrans, we must vote against the bill. We do not believe Terrans should be made to suffer in countries where an oppressive regime is in power. We can offer Dundorf as a beacon of hope, and a place to start a new peaceful life. This proposal has nothing to do with pacifism and with the reduction of the role of the military. It has everything to do with making people around the globe suffer in countries where they are repressed. I am rather surprised that a self-described pacifist party would seek to shut our borders to people who want to live in a peaceful country such as the BRD. |

| Message | We are the most pacifist party in this country. The CU loves the people of Dundorf and we want to protect our good citizens from internationalism terrorism and bolshevism. |

| Random fact: Cultural Protocol bills must provide a real-life equivalent or short description for the ethnic groups, languages and religions contained in them, such that it would be easy for an unfamiliar player to understand (e.g. "Dundorfian = German"). Where appropriate, they should also provide guidance to players on where to find help with translations and character names. This might include, for example, links to Google Translate, Behind the Name's Random Name Generator and Fantasy Name Generators. |
